| Vehicle | 2009 GIANT Reign X1 All mountain bike with full suspension, FOX 36 Vanilla R front, FOX RC2 rear, SRAM X.9/X.7 components with Avid Elixir 5 hydraulic disk brakes | ||
| Motor | Crystalyte HS3540 Brushless DC Rear Hub motor | ||
| Controller | Greentime Greentime 80 amp controller with 24-4110 fets. Was originally a 72v controller but was modified for over 100V operation by replacing the linear low voltage section with a 150v rated switching unit. Controller is probably capable of 100 amp by reducing the shunt as it only gets slightly warm. Not bad for a $100 controller. | ||
| Batteries | 9 Turnigy 8S 25C 5.8ah packs, 3.70 Volt, Lithium-Polymer Room for a 1kwh pack in front, 1/2 kwh in the back. Total of 1.5kwh (24S3P - 17.4ah)from 9 packs of Turnigy 5.8ah 8S 25C, about $100 per pack. The cells are rated for 25C continuous, 35C short term, so over 400 amp continuous but I cannot find a motor/controller combo that will handle this power and look good on a mtb. Fresh pack maintains over 92 volts at 75 amps 6.9KW | ||
| System Voltage | 90 Volts | ||
| Charger | Icharger Using 3 Icharger 208B chargers in series isolated by Vicor Megapak power module. BMS pins and charge cables are on a single 36pin connector. | ||
